Design and engineering
Layout, technology selection, structural and electrical design, and the drawings construction is built from.
Plant layout including row spacing that avoids self shading through winter, module and inverter selection matched to local temperature and dust, structure design for the site wind loading, DC and AC cable sizing, earthing and protection design, and the single line diagrams and drawings construction is built from.
What this includes
- Plant layout and row spacing against winter shading
- Module and inverter selection for local conditions
- Structure and foundation design for site wind and soil
- DC and AC cable sizing and loss modelling
- Earthing, lightning and protection design
- Single line diagrams and construction drawing set
- What you receiveOutput
- Detailed project report, single line diagrams and construction drawings
- When you need itTiming
- After feasibility and before procurement.
Copying a layout from another site. Row spacing that works at one latitude shades itself at another, and the loss runs for the life of the plant.
Delivered by our own team together with vetted specialist partners and, where the question needs it, a named member of our expert bench. We tell you who is doing the work before the engagement starts.
